I am willing to use the node-red-contrib-tplink node.  
I retrieved power consumption values from this node without any problem :

```auto
{
"current":0.054276,
"voltage":234.629612,
"power":1.102936,
"total":13.577,
"err_code":0,
"current_ma":54,
"power_mw":1102,
"total_wh":13577,
"voltage_mv":234629,
"timestamp":"2022-04-03T23:09:08+02:00"
}

```

I guess that "total\_wh" stands for the total watt consumption (for the day? )

Problem if I check on my phone the daily consumption, I have a totally different value :  
4,73 Kwh

Does any one know how to relate  
"total\_wh":13577  
to  
4,73 Kwh ?

thank you

13577 WH  
is 13.577 KWH  
which is probably the running total.

I see the power reads 1.1, but according to voltage and amps should be 11ish.

thanks for your answer,  
but then why do I get 4,73 in the official app ?  
the plug was set up today
